Why are half the companions trying to get in my pants?
Ya know, maybe i'm starting to come round to the idea that maybe my character is just like David Beckham or something. The kind of guy who makes women want him, and men want.. to be women.

Extensive first thoughts after finishing Deadfire's first playthrough
daven replied to Tanjaxxx's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)At first I couldn't understand the choice of combat music, but i kind of like how understated it is. Most of the music is really appealing, the only part that really bothers me is the level up music. It just seems to drone on when you're levelling up 5 party members in a row, since it stops and starts again. Edit: And also like others say the sound design in general is a massive step up since the first game. I love the Queen's Berth track like other's have said and the sea shanties.

No Endless Paths style Dungeon in POE 2?
daven replied to mjo2138's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I think my favourite encounter... even though I saw it a mile off is in the Old City when you pick up the sabre and all the undead rise up and attack. However you fight ther exact same enemies throughout the rest of that area. What do you guys think is the best encounter over both games? I would say Raedric and his cronies.

No Endless Paths style Dungeon in POE 2?
daven replied to mjo2138's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I sort of enjoyed Endless Paths, but it seemed like they rushed the last few floors or ran out of ideas.

Why are half the companions trying to get in my pants?
I just don't know then, i've had 3 party members want to come back to the captains quarters almost immediately. I feel like the dialogue must be being initiated too quickly or something. I'd had Maia in my party for all of 5 minutes before she wanted my pole. I will accept it is bugged dialogue and hope a patch sorts it. If not, the writing is horribly forced and ham-fisted.

How awesome is walking?!
daven replied to flyingsaucers's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I think there is ONE. Right at the start before character creation.

Too little combat and too much talking?
daven replied to Archaven's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)That's interesting, I think the first game was a bit too much combat. OR that the enemies were uninteresting. I think they may have gone a bit too far this time, because I find the combat more interesting but there is less of it. always leave us wanting more right?

Where are the dungeons?
daven replied to yoyolll's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)The undercity in Neketaka is alright, but again quite short. I like the design of it, reminds me of New Londo in Dark Souls.

The Ship combat thread
daven replied to Odoakar's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Yeah I kind of figured that out in my first battle. Is that all there is to it?!

Why was the game realeased when it has so many bugs?
daven replied to ArnoldRimmer's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)Yes this bothers me, only very few specific people should know who you are by face. Not every random joe blow you walk by.

Any good helmets?
Yes, I will tell you the name when I get home from work. It does random defences throughout the battle like damage reduction/spell resistance/chance to reflect/etc. And looks good to boot. OK, Pearlescent helstone helm. Sorry i forgot where I found it, maybe the old city?

Does anyone know how to check if relationship increases are working
daven replied to Yenkaz's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Get Konstanten, he's a hoot with that over-the-top voice of his. Also, his big hands may be his only character trait, but at least he's honest about it. Where does he live? I haven't found any sidekicks.

What about atmosphere compared to PoE1?
daven replied to DaKatarn's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I like it, why do people go to the beach? To have a good time! Walking on the beaches, looking at the peacheeessss!

Lets talk about Berath's Blessings and Curses
Can't think of anything right now but I just want to agree with this. Resting only in an inn is a good one actually. I'm tempted to just try some of these self imposed, since the game is a bit of a joke. I'm on veteran and haven't died once, in the first game I died quite a few times.

Old City Lift
I found it very strange that when I get to the smugglers cove at the end of this area, someone say's 'we're watching you don't try anything'(or something along them lines) and then I can just wander about their camp without anyone caring. Surely they would take me hostage immediately or attack me if a complete stranger just waltzed on into their illegal operation???

Companion relations
daven replied to ultornet's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I've come to the conclusion that this entire system makes no sense whatsoever.

How do I find dismissed characters?
daven replied to largejack's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Probably went back to the Dyrwood to become an alcoholic.

The sales thread
daven replied to master guardian's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)But also compared to contemporary benchmarks, like DoS 2. Torment Tides of Numenera, Shadowrun Dragonfall, Wasteland 2 I guess. I have only played Shadowrun Returns/Dragonfall out of them anyway.

The sales thread
daven replied to master guardian's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)It's been on the GOG top sellers for a while now, even before release. It doesn't show numbers though I think?

Main Story way too short for an RPG! I am very disspointed...
daven replied to Voltron's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Persona 5 takes about 300 hours.......!

Except romance can be quite endearing when done right. You don't need multiple entries, or sequels, to create meaningful romance. Some of my favorite romances come from dragon age origins. It's just here, the devs didn't have the talent to make good romance. In which case, they should have instead not opted for romance. So maybe it's a bit short and not that well written for the characters. I still find it entertaining to have Hylea as a wingman Honestly, Hylea is adorable. You should be able to romance her instead. Not when she had birds defecate all over my ship! The cow!

Companion/Sidekick impressions
daven replied to Infiltrator_SF's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I'm not entirely sure what this relationship system even does, other than have Xoti allegedly bite her lip and Aloth roll his eyes every other sentence.
